Empathy and accountability must be integrated, not balanced. Feedback is essential for growth and should be seen as a sign of care. Engaged employees lead to better business outcomes. Listening with purpose is a key skill for leaders. Creating a culture of accountability starts with clear expectations. Discomfort is a natural part of the learning process. Empathy requires time and presence in conversations. Feedback should be framed as a collaborative process. Leaders must help employees understand their role in the bigger picture.

Being a manager in a coffee shop may be one of the most difficult jobs in the cafe. Not only do you bear the responsibility  of the daily operations, you also have the expectations from the owners as well as your barista team. Most managers are barely making is through. Much of the stress experienced can be avoided when we equip managers with tools to help them succeed in their roles, allowing them to see progress as a result of their efforts.  Today we will be talking about several essential tools that a manager needs to employ in their daily and weekly schedule to care for the cafe, the team, the business and, of course, themselves. Owners, it is your responsibility to make sure you are tangibly supporting and resourcing manangers with the time and tools they need. This is a start.    Related Episodes:  109 : Leadership Abandonment Syndrome : Lack of development in senior staff and what to do about it 383 : How to Train a Manager 228 : Cracking the Leadership Code w/ Alain Hunkins 194 : Encore Episode!

GREAT conversation with Alain today. From the culture he grew up with to how he guides leaders today, you'll get a lot out of listening. His three Cs are key to leadership, whether at home or in your organization: Connection Communication Collaboration And he spoke of Consistency, which I'd call a 4th C in his model. Alain's book Cracking the Leadership Code is worth picking up! We connect as human beings. Our world demands people who can think and co-create within an organization. Leaders must find a way to convey that each employee feels valued and cared for. That's how you get real connection. Communication is about creating shared, mutual understanding. If you assume that the default is that what is being communicated will be misunderstood, what will you need to do to ensure true understanding? Collaboration means creating the culture together by asking the question of what gets the BEST out of people. In the interview, we discussed the graying of the workforce, mentorship, and remote work. Super interesting! Consistency counts and so does actively seeking feedback (so that you can get better). Think about this, too. It's called the Fundamental Attribution Error: We justify our actions based on our intentions. Others judge us based on the outcomes and results.

We are experiencing a transformation, an evolution in how we lead and what makes a successful leader. Today, I had a great conversation with Alain Hunkins, CEO and author of Cracking The Leadership Code: Three Secrets to Building Strong Leaders about the common leadership assumptions that can get people into trouble, the obstacles we face in how to connect, the three secrets of strong leaders, and how we can communicate better. He shares the story of how one leader went from being ranked at the bottom to achieving outstanding results by focusing on people first before the numbers and the work.Alain and I discuss what gets in the way of empathy, the role transparency plays in killing the old leadership paradigm, how employees got to the point that they have such low confidence in their leaders - and what we can do to reverse that - and he'll also share a great trick to ensure you are communicating effectively. To access the episode transcript, please click on the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.com Key Takeaways:Studies show we judge ourselves by our intentions, but others by their actions. The old model of command and control leadership is a dying paradigm. Leadership must evolve - all leaders are now living in a glass house with the technology available. We no longer live in a world of information asymmetry. Numbers are neat and tidy, people are not. To lead people, you have to make the time to connect with your team empathetically not just look at the business numbers.Ask for a receipt in your communication. It doesn't take much time, but it does increase understanding and clarity. "All leadership development is personal development, and all personal development is leadership development.

Leadership is a topic that has fascinated people for centuries, from ancient philosophers to modern business schools. While the definition of leadership may vary depending on the context, at its core, leadership is all about inspiring and guiding others towards a common goal or vision. Effective leadership requires a range of skills and traits, including strong communication, emotional intelligence, and the ability to make difficult decisions. Whether in business, politics, or everyday life, good leadership is essential for success and fulfillment. Alain Hunkins imparts his life's lessons, wisdom, and counsel to everyone listening today. Always remember that the greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. They are the one that gets the people to do the greatest things. Tune in as young leaders ask questions about life, personal growth, and more! Quotes: “There's a time and a place to be hard. But there's a time and a place to be soft, too.” – Alain Hunkins “The three secrets to building strong leaders are connection, communication, and collaboration.” – Alain Hunkins “For all of us, we have to get really clear on what is our personal definition of success is.” – Alain Hunkins Takeaways: A balanced approach is often the most effective one. Sometimes it's necessary to be tough and assertive, but other times it's important to be gentle and compassionate. Finding the right balance between these two approaches is key to navigating life's challenges and maintaining healthy relationships. To become a strong leader, it's important to prioritize connection, communication, and collaboration with team members. Through building these relationships, leaders can create a culture of openness, creativity, and shared goals. Success means different things to different people, and it's important for each person to define success on their own terms rather than accepting someone else's definition. By doing so, we can strive towards our own unique goals and aspirations rather than feeling pressure to conform to societal norms or other people's expectations. Conclusion: Becoming a good leader is a process that requires both self-reflection and a willingness to continually improve. It's important to have a clear vision and set of values, and to communicate these effectively to team members. Good leaders must also be able to make difficult decisions and take responsibility for their actions. Building trust, fostering collaboration, and promoting growth within the team are also key components of effective leadership. Finally, good leaders recognize the importance of emotional intelligence, being able to listen, empathize, and respond appropriately to the needs of their team members. By cultivating these skills and traits, anyone can become a good leader and inspire others towards success.

He is also the author of the book CRACKING THE LEADERSHIP CODE: Three Secrets to Building Strong Leaders.  From a young age, Alain was a keen observer of people. He noticed the differences between his life at home, being raised by his mother and grandmother, both Holocaust survivors, and being somewhat ‘glass half empty' people, and the much lighter atmospheres in his friends' homes. Upon reflection, he was lifting some heavy weights as a kid and yet, also learned how to navigate a world with many different people all around him. In college, he studied psychology and theater and went on to study acting, earning his Master's in Fine Arts. At that time, Alain attended a training weekend with the Mankind Project, which changed his life. That experience transformed the direction of his career towards group facilitation, arts education, and corporate training. Over his twenty-five-year career, Alain has worked with over 3,000 groups of leaders in 27 countries, including 42 of the Fortune 100 companies.

A leader is neither born nor made. A leader chooses to be a leader. So does that mean, it has always been inside us all the time? Most of us fail at it because we go straight into leadership skills without first addressing the leader's mindset. Leadership is more than just a title.  Who you are is how you lead. It's that simple.As you reflect on your own leadership, I'd invite you to answer the question, “Who are you being?” with Alain HunkinsWhen you show up to work, or lead in your home, or community, “Who are you being?”The more you look for an answer, the more you become aware of your inner leader.Over his twenty-five-year career, Alain has worked with over 2,000 groups of leaders in 27 countries, including 42 of the Fortune 100 companies. In addition to being a leadership speaker, consultant, trainer, and coach, Alain is the author of the book CRACKING THE LEADERSHIP CODE: Three Secrets to Building Strong Leaders (published by Wiley, March 2020). Alain is a faculty member of Duke Corporate Education and serves on the Academic Board of Advisors for the New Delhi Institute of Management.

Alain was recently named #33 on the Global Power list of the Top 200 Biggest Voices in Leadership for 2022 by LeadersHum. A father of two teenagers, he lives in Northampton, Massachusetts.

Who we are is how we lead. It's not just about what we do in the world when it comes to leadership; it's also about who we are. Take a minute to consider whether it is possible to divorce one's identity from the roles we play. I don't believe so.You need to have a solid understanding of who you are as a person and how to use that knowledge to your advantage as a leader. You may assess your leadership strengths and weaknesses using this knowledge to become a more effective leader. Then, you can work to improve your weaknesses while enhancing your strengths.A sought-after keynote speaker, facilitator, coach and author, Alain Hunkins helps leaders achieve performance goals, more easier.His work connects the science of high performance with the performing art of leadership. Leaders trust him to help unlock their potential and expand their influence, leading to superior results, increased engagement, higher levels of retention, and greater organizational and personal satisfaction. He has a gift for translating complex concepts from psychology, neuroscience and organizational behavior into simple, practical tools that can be applied on the job.With his Master's in Fine Arts in Acting from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Professional Theater Training Program, and a BA from Amherst College, Alain is on the faculty of Duke Corporate Education, ranked #2 worldwide in 2019 by Financial Times on its list of customized Executive Education programs.
